nests his new credentials is Auibassador Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of his Catholic Majesty. JUrT 2U. Her Royal Highness the Infanta Donnaisabells Maria, being obliged by the indispensable necessity,of preventing, the more serious attacks of the disorder from which .she suffered so much last year, and which began again to threaten her leave this city on the 22d, to go to Villa des Caldas de' Rainba, to make use of the waters, which alone have relieved the painful disorder which caused such general uneasiness.. The application of this remedy so urgently called for, both by the severity of the disorder, and by the salutary effects already experienced, has been delayed from al regard to the public service, which her Royal Highness prefers to all other considerations, and which she now reconciles by inviting the government in that town to proceed without interruption in its functions. The Councillor, Minister, and Secretary of State for Ec clesiastical Affairs and Justice, will accompany her Royal Highness to dispatch the most urgent business, the other Members will remain in this city, to transact the business of their respective departments. Her Royal Highness will stay away no longer than is ab solutely necessary for the use of the waters, and will return AS soon as possible to the Capital, of the . constant esteem and affection of whose inhabitants she is deeply sensible. The Brazilian vessel .Bornfint arrived yesterday in 59 days from Bahia, by which we learn, that on the 18th of April an English vessel from Lisbon had brought the me lancholy news of 'the death of his Majesty the late. King, and that his august son sailed on the 22d of March, ac companied by the same ships that went with her, and by a French frigate. It seems that Sir Charles Stuart hardly staid two days at Bahia, and left it in the same frigate that brought him. It was not said what was his desti _ • nation. JUNE 26.—The' Gazette contains a very long Alvara, to facilitate to members of the regular orders and congre gations the admission to the office of teacher in the public schools. • We have received also this forenoon the Allgemeine Zeitung of the 4th instant, from which we make the following extract :-- BERLIN, JUNE 25. The subscriptions for the children, women, and aged, in Greece, are very Satisfactory:. All classes, high and low, take a warm interest in the cause; yet the calm observer is of opinion that the Greeks, in whatever light their con test may 'be considered, have not hitherto shown them selves worthy of the interest that Europe takes in them. The Prussian Association, which 'is resolved entirely to steer clear of politics, could not consider itself a branch of the French and English Societies, which have assumed a political character. Under those circumstances, the only thing that could be done is to send a special agent with the Prussian contribution to that unhappy country. His MAJESTY'S Commissioners for building new Churches have presented their Sixth Annual Report, and this Report will be found in another, column. The general result of the labours of this Commission, and of the measures which they now have in contemplation, may be stated shortly as follows From the opening of the Commission they have determined upon and made provision for the erection of 165 additional. Churches and Chapels, and 64 of that number either have been, or are ready for con secration. Since their last Report,lB Churches and Chapels have been .completed, capable of affording accommoda tion for 11,690 persons in pews, and for 15,220 poor persons in free seats. Seventeen Churches and Chapels are now in pro gress. The Committee have received plans for eleven other Churches and Chapels, part of which have been re ceived—but they have not yet received plans for seven other Churches and Chapels, which are proposed to be built at places specified. The Committee have proposed to make grants in aid of building Sixty-six New Churches and Chapels, and four of these are now in progress. The Committee are proceeding in that part of their duty which relates to the expediency of dividing pa rishes and for obtaining additional burial grounds for certain parishes. The CommiSsioners have issued Exchequer Bills to the amount of 777,2001. Our readers are of course p erfectly aware that th e disputed Sovereign ty . p o ssession of the Island of Shnpooree, formed one of the principal grounds of the war between this country and the Burmese. Some documents on this subject have been printed, in pur suance of an Order of the House of Commons, dated the sth M arc h l ast , w hi c h ca ll e d f o r " Copy of any Document which has been received in England, to show that the Island of Shapooree • belongs to, or is within the Territory of the. East India Company, and from what period, and in what manner it becalm theirs ;". and it may be interesting to our readers to be made acquainted with some of the facts stated in these papers. It appears then, that the Court. of Directors on the Bth of June, 1825, expressed to the Governor General in COuncil, their wish to be put in posses sion of the fullest evidence of the British right of sovereignty over this Island ;• and the • reply from the Governor General in Council forms No. I.of these papers. In this despatch it appears that this Island, which is not more than 20 or 30 acres in extent, indisputably trey on , the British side of the main 'channel of the Neal, and therefore from its position, evidently forms a portion of the Hon. Company's. territory : that it had been originally grante d b y Mr. Bird, the Col lector. of • the District, in 1790, to the father of two Chiefs, found in possession in 1815, but that the first recorded measurement of it was made by British Officers in 1801, when it was eonsidered to form part of the revenue division called Monza Tek Naaf. In 1802 it was . granted to a landowner of wealth, who, however, failed to perform his engagement to clear it. It . eontinued to be considered as part of our posses sion till August, 'lB2B, when RAJA TQOROO WYA demanded the removal of the British guard from Sha ,pooree—but without waiting the result of his remon stranee, within a month afterwards he proceeded to carry his threats into 'execution, of applying farce under the ex press or d ers o f t h e King of ANA. Such are ,the facts of the case with respect to this Island,' which has become so famous for being the ostensible cause of the long amid expe ns i ve war i n which we have been en gage d with the Burmese. But the'despatch satisfactorily - shows that other and much more substantial causes' existed for the appeal to arms . The Governor General in Council, in this despat c h, avidJedfhimself of the opportunity which the enquiry of .tlie . Court of Directors afforded, to r e f er to the _origin: early events and true causes of the war (which hid been preyionil/ Stated, in detail to the Secret Com inittee), 'which he irpresses a confident hope will have satisfied the Ciniit *hat the Government of Ava was determined, Soot - ter or later , to prosecute its extra vagant 'PretenSfcms to the possession of our Eastern 131 'itriq 8 4.S known hazard of a rupture with th e Vritiiii.poweri and 'that under the cOnibination of ch.- cumstances, and ; position of affairs, which arose out of the Ourmese aggressions and hostile demonstrations in 1823-24 on the side both of CHITTAGONG and SYLTET, recourse to arms could not have beenavoid ea On our part, without exposing our honour, our interest, and the liveS and properties of our subjects to the.most seriws, perhaps irreparable injury." The Subsequent paragraphs of the despatch, after describing various acts of aggression on the part of the Burmese, state in detail the immediate and direct Sacrifices which must have been made to purchase a temporary and precarious peace ; and affirm, " that the Governor General in Council would have unwor thily sacrificed the high interest committed to his charge,: if he had longer deferred the declaration and vigorous prosecution of hostilities against, the State of - Ava." The last paragraphs of the despatch con tain a justification of the time of declaring, and mode of carrying .on„the war. This document appears to us to be such - an im portant record of the causes and conduct Of one of the most serious wars in which our Eastern Empire has been engaged, that we shall endeavour to find space in our columns, on an early daY, for its most material and interesting parts. The. Gazette of Lyons states Cat the letters from Toulon bring accounts that all the ships capa ble of putting to sea, and those stationed on the coast of Spain, have received orders to proceed to the Levant, where some events are expected to take place. The Commission, charged to pro claim the Duke of Nemours, is to embark on board the Truite. M. Harcourt and Delavigne are ar rived, ' but the Gazette of Lyons does not give any date to this extraordinary information. The Moutteur states in a paragraph that M. the Count Emmanuel Harcourt is to embark at Toulon. SMYRNA, JUNE 10.—The Volusia, from Glasgow and Malta, is arrived here, after b e i ng plundered of between 30 and 40 packages by Greek Pirates, and the master wounded. The property taken out of the Helen, Diadem, and Vohaia, is estimated at least at 18,000/. Every arrival from Smyrna and Constantinople brings fresh accounts of the depredations of the Greek Pirates. Any vessel that proceeds without convoy is sure to be plundered,'and the captain and crew ill-treated. The fol lowing extract of a letter from Smyrna, gives one more to the outrages already mentioned. Accounts from Italy say that while the weather here is so 'hot and dry, the temperature at Naples is at 14 deg. Reaumur, and the atmosphere rainy as in No vember. The rains had so swelled the rivers that a man of the environs of Naples was drowned on the 19th, in attempting to cross one. Several per so n s ha\ c been killed by lightning in the province of Capetanata. On the 14th several shocks of an earth quake were felt at different times in the day in Calabria Ultra Seconda. A shock was also felt at Milan, on the 24th, at twenty-five minutes past one. Yr.l-.4 THE FUNDS. CITY, Twelve o' Clock.

This morning about half-past nine o'clock, a destructive fire broke out at the bake-house of Mr. Penfold, 128, DriFy-lane, and continued burning with unabated violence till neatly eleven' o'clock; When it was providentially got sustained, appears by all accounts, " to d b e : . con T si h d e errle ag > as " the two adoining houses in Stewart's Rents, one of which w as ,ft chandler's, became ignited, When the alarm was first given, a loud shriek was heard; and porNes three femalecappeared at a two-pair of stairs o v i out of which they aN,:litlY y precipitated themselves, but by good luck were caught by the crowd below in the street. We have not heard how the acc id ent or i g i nate d, but are happy to state that no lives were lost. rin " Newcastle-upon- i yne,. , says aletter from that on an gaety intotown town, ~ e xhibited such a scene of animati d i on Friday last, as is hardly remembered there. About t m hr . p ee o'co afternoon the Hon. l the ~ T. Liddell, P, made ini his the atri urap in a most imesing style. Toward s four o'clock Mat thew Bell, Esq. M. P. entered Newcastle, al so en grand co r te g e, a mid the ringing of bells, and the usual demodstrations of popular joy. About seven o'cl oc k Th omas 'W en t wor th Beaumont, Esq. ( who 80 nobly fought and conquereA the Whig faction at the late election), made his appearance at the entrance , ac compa nied into the town, b a long string of car riages, gentlemen on Horseback, Sce. Nothing could exceed the enthusiasm with which he was received as his procession passed through the streets to th e Turk's Head. Here the Hon. Gentleman alighted, and from one of the windows on the first floor, addressed a very animated harangue to an im me nse assemblage of people in front of the hotel, who testified their approbation by the loudest and most cheering accla mations. There i s no d ou b t that when the sense of the county of Northumberland is again appealed to, the late worthy Member will be reinstated. The Freeholders of North Shields have invited Mr. Beau mont to a grand dinner on M on d ay next, a t the Com mercial, Hotel. It is proper to add, that Mr. Liddell and a numerous party of friends dined at the Queen's Head Inn on Friday, in celebration of that Gentle man's return to Parliament for Northumberland ; as did also Mr. Bell and a large party of his f r iends, at the' George 'be , . . LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY.,-(bus DAT.) STEWART'II. LORD BUTE. • ' HiS LORDSHIP intimated, that upon reading the settlement made in this case last night, he : found that he had mis-read net of it before. it now appeared to him, that, by . looking at the'will with respect to the annuity, it was impoSsible to diSpose of the question Without also looking at a covenant on the part of Lord Bute, in the deed of settlement, which would certainly be a difficult way of dealing with it. If the will would not satisfy the annuity, there would be a demand un der the covenant the Court had referred to ; but his Lordship will give judgment on Friday morning. ELEPHANT AND CASTLE CHARITY. By way of officially disp . osing of this matter, His LORDSHIP said, it appeared to him to be extremely reasonable, that as the charity had been founded by an ecclesiastical body, the provision for the National School should stand as part of the scheme for the administration of the property. This was the only remaining question undisposed of, and the Court now made the order to this effect. CONS? 4J. HARRIS..--COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. MS LORDSHIP had been amusing himself through the scenes of this case, and hoped he would be able to drop the curtain by disposing of it to-morrow. EXPARTE GRIMSTEAD IN THE MATTER Or HOW ARD V. GIBBS, BANKRUPTS. _ This motion stood to be spoken to vs to costs. Mr. HORNE appeared for the assignees. The Court had given judgment against the petitioner, Mr. Grimstead, and in favour of the bankrupts' estate, therefore the learned counsel conceived he had nothing to do, but merely to ask for the costs. If the Court did not give, costs to the assignees, it would have been much better for them never to have litigated the question, nor to have objected to the proof Mr. Grimstead had unsuccessfully claimed to make. Mr. Tur.stovE was on the same side. He thought his clients ought to ask for more than common costs. Mr. Grin►atead had failed on every occasion; he had brought before the Court evidence that the Court would not be lieve ; and if he had brought polluted evidence before the Court, he ought to be called upon to pay more than com mon costs. Messrs. HART and MONTAGUE appeared on the other side, and they could only resist the application on the ground of hardship. By the unfortunate confidence Mr. Grimstead had reposed in the bankrupts, 40,0001. of his money would he distributed among the creditors, and by which they would probably get twenty shillings in the pound. He was reduced to poverty by it at the age of seventy-three—his children taken from college—his aged wife brought to misery—and under these circum stances it could hardly have been expected that the credi tors would have asked for costs, probably amounting to 80,0004 His Lordship understood the present application to be for all the costs since the presenting of the first petition ; he should turn over in his mind U7l Thursday morning all the proceedings that had, since that stop, taken place, and then dispose of the application. VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.--(Tuts DAy - ) THE ATTOANEY•CENEIAL V. CLIZVZ. This was a bill filed by the Attorney-General against the Corporation of St. Mary's, Ottoway, accusing them of collusion with the tithe-payers, in not exacting 'from them the due value of the tithes. The Solicitor General appeared ou behalf of the com plainant. The Corporation, he said, consisted of four Governors, who were to apply the prod uce of ti le tith es towards. the support of a Charity-school, but being land proprietors themselves, they were interested in not exacting the full value of the tithes, consequently the Attorney-General felt bound to institute, these proceed ings to bring them to an account. On behalf of the defendants a ltodu.t Was set up, in sup port of which they producect3the evidence advanced at a trial whioh took place in the Court of Exchequer, - .in the year 1657, at the suit of the Corporation; against a tythe-payer, wherein the former were defeated, (it having appeared that the defendant had paid according to the scale of payments from time immemorial,) which scale has prevailed down to the present time. The ,several items chaired were "here discussed by Mr. Shadwell on behalf of the defendants, and the Solicitor- General for the Crown, who did 'not conclude theitargil ments before we went to press. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET—(Tun Dii.) Lieutenant Kenny was charged with the murder of Mr. Charlton, the Surgeon of a ship on the high seas. The case is one of a most extraordinary nature—a duel, with out seconds : but owing to the absence of the principal witness, the case was put off. _MARLBOROUGH-STREET—(TIIIs DAY.) Mr, Augustus Alexander charged sEva a pretty nJan rs,(thc ninth part of an Irishman) w ith hitting h im considerable poke" on his left ear, and with hugging the said Augustus Alexander, till , they .both fell, in loving intimacy, on their mo th er e arth. When .Evan was asked for his defence, he replied—" I fist, I believe, rather, went up aginst,the jontleman." MAGISTRATE—Then you must, I believe, fiat find bail, and poor Evan was consigned to the Cerberus of the Establishment. HATTON GARDEN.—(Tura DAY.) "icier Rondeau and Jane Reudiny, were brought before the sitting Magistrate, W. L. RauEns, Esq. under the following charge : ,Mr. Lee, 43, Kenton-street, Brunswick-square, stated that the male prisoner lodged_ with him, and nas in the habit of bringing different women home with him after the family bad retired to rest. This morning, between six and seven o'clock, he was alarmed by the cries of murder proceeding from the room of the male prisoner, and on going up stairs he found the' woman on the ground cover ed with blood, and Rondeau standing over her flourishing a poker. She being an entire stranger to witness, he gave them both into the custody of Cadley. Mr. ROGERS asked the complainant why he did not get rid of so troublesome a lodger. Mr. Lee said that be had given him repeated notice to quit the lodgings, but could not succeed in getting rid of him. Mr. RooEfts.—Then fasten him out. Jane Re u di n y, th e female brought up w ith n on d aeu , Wed whose face and head was One mass or contusions and bruises, was then asked by the magistrate, if she wished to prefer any charge against the prisoner for the gross assault on herself. She answered i n th e affirmative, and stated that having met the prisoner last night, he Persuaded her to accom pany him to his lodgings, which she did, and staid till this morning. On being about to leave the house, she re minded him of , a certain promise made to her last night. The prisoner, who is a Frenchman, said, " 01 yes; I re , collect ver veil—take dat," and immediately struc k h er a plow oh th e face which knocked her down. He then seized the poker and struck her on the head, and if her Dries; had net brought ass i stance , she would in a ll pro b a bili ty have fallen a victim to his violence. In his defence, the prisoner said he took her home for c h a rity, and he could not see why she should ask him for morn. She was very impertinent, and 'he chastised her. The Magistrate said he Nos a very great brute, and it ivas fortunate for him that his violence had not placed him at that bar in a very different situation, when his life might have been at stake, He was then ordered to &al bail. FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. WrNDSOR, JUT 10.-.--The King continues to take his usual drive almost daily to 'Virginia-water, where his MAJESTY and suite take an excursion on the lake, and afterwards dine in a marquee erected on its margin for the accommodation of thq King. His MAJESTY paid a visit to the Castle on Thursday to inspect the progress of the works. The Royal Horse Guards, preceded by their band, marched from the Cavalry-barracks yesterday morning to the square in the barracks of the Foot Guards, where divine service was performed to both regiments. The bands of the Royal Horse Guards and of the 634 regiment at tended, and played on the Terrace in the afternoon to a numerous company of visitors from all quarters, The King will hold a Privy Council on Wednesday at the Castle. The account of the state of the Duke of York yes terday was very flattering—m His Royal is mending fast.' The Royal Duke was so much better, we are happy to say, as to be able to ride out on horseback in the morning from Mr. Greenwood's villa towards Hampstead. Sir Henry Halford, after attending his Royal patient, called on the Duke mid Duchess of Gloucester to report the state of their Royal relative. The Princess Augusta and the Princess Sophia visited the Royal Duke yesterday. His Royal Highness transacted military business with Sir Herbert Taylor. Yesterday the Neapolitan Minister transacted busi ness at the 'Foreign-office. A king's Messenger arrived at the Secretary of State's Office for Foreign Affairs on Sunday night, with despatches from the Right Hon. Stratford, Can ning, our Ambassador at Constantinople. The Earl of Liverpool arrived at his residence at Whitehall yesterday morning. The proposed improvements in Pall-mall extend as far westward as the Duke of Buckingham's mansion. The only houses to be left, standing are those of Lady Dysart and Mr. Evans, the celebrated bookseller,— The house between his and the Duke of Buckinham's comes down to make a passage to the new '1 errace fronting the Park. The Herald's College, the Tra veller's and the Athencean club-houses, will occupy the greater part of the space in Pall-mall. Next to having none at all, there cannot be a more striking symptom of a scanty wardrobe than wearing a black velvet waistcoat in the dog-days. The celebrated Wilkes was always waited upon at table by female servants ; imagining that the conversa tion was less likely to be repeated or commented upon by them than by men ; agreeing with the French pro verb, " the female mind is like a mirror, which re ceives every impression, but retains none." TILE CHIEF JUSTICE BEST.---ThiS Learned Judge was very much indisposed while at the Bedford As sizes, and durin the long trial of the case of Sir Gregory Page turner, Bart. appeared to suffiv much. His Lordship was to have proceeded on Sunday morn ing early to the seat of the High Sheriff of Bedford shire, and from thence to Huntingdon ; but having passed a very bad night, was compelled to postpone his journey to a later period of the day. We believe his Lordship's indisposition arises from an attack of the cholera morbus, while on the road to Bedford. Yesterday morning; soon after eight o'clock, the remains of the late Miss Dee, who was attendant and lady in waiting' on"'the' Princess Sophia Matilda be tweeu ,forty and fifty years, were removed from the Princess's house in Curzon-street, May Fair, for in terment in a family vault at Barnes, Surrey. TUB. TitEASUA/C8 OF Tug DvEr.--p-A fisherman near Warren, H.l: lately caught a fish, which had se creted in its' maw a lady's green silk indispensable, containing an ivory box of rouge, a few love letters, some, original poetry copied from old newipapers, hunch of false curls, two teeth made of white wax, four yards of tape, and, some large bars of steel, intend ed for corsettes. FESTIVITIES AT - SrowE.—Mn Thursday the weather being most 'auspicious, Buckingham was thronged at an early hour in the morning with parties proceeding to 'Stowe Park, to enjoy the amusements of the day. On the ground, the course was lined with the fair sex in their gayest attire. There were two bands of music stationed behind the grand stand in which His Grace the Duke of 'Buckingham sat, ac companied by a number of other persons of distinction, Near this was another ('Preacher s) stand, which exhi bited a fine display of the beauty of Buckinghamshire, and on other parts of theground were numerous booths, of all pretensions, for. the supply of refreshments for, the company. HINDtT NOTION OF FALSE EVIDENCE.-411 some cases, a giver of false evidence, from a pious motive, even though he know the truth, shall not lose a seat in heaven ; such evidence wise men call the speech of the gods. Whenever the death of a man who had not been a grievous offender, either of the servile, he commercial, the military, or sacerdotal class, would be occasioned by true evidence, from the known rigour of the King, even though the fault arose from inad vertence or error, falsehood may be spoken ; it is even preferable to truth.--Dherma Sagint. AN AxswEn.--An old schoolmaster who usually heard his pupils once a week th ro u g h Watt's Scrip ture History, and afterwards asked them promiscuously such questions as suggested themselves to his mind, one day desired a young urchin to tell him who Jesse was ? when the boy replied " the flower of Durn blame." asi.ain°oled* A very worthy, though not particularly erudite under-writer at Lloyd's, was conversing one day with a friend in the Coffee-house on the subject of a ship they had mutually insured. His friend observed, "Do you know that' I shrewdly suspect our ship is in jeolardli." ~ The D--1 she is,' replied he ; "well, I'm glad that she's got into some port at last." How TO MAKE A DOCTOR.--Before the honour able degree of M.D. is conferred, the candidate is commonly examined in Latin. At a recent examina tion in a University not a hundred miles from Edin-, burgh, the following question was asked ;.,— , 4 Q u id est crearei" The young ./Esculapius looked rather but at length answered,--" Creare est ' e eblephant was ex fr7cel l A re-e f ri c e'll . nuaa w sllisiseg o 'ill i 'l i Ci pt e'c* ::u °7 a . ri i, eh ", : s 'il..: E : 1., Eii ‘ I I E A rg N: .'--.) v‘ l r t a Baler celebratedari r i e a P r l k Y : ‘evait,atoavediirtlmre;etpahritsy,nathemeo)vt,liitelehrtiamtilatefi, company us he had brought laughed, as present, though - she did 'not s p eaox c ia c itic t ir e tiglyd i e l t iki o clii r io r anwd l y. ia liv i w, i h i ithyh h os e i r iwil e ehan, However, she deter mind 4) repeat the witticism as soon as an opportit iiity.olfered.
